58 MISSION OF SACRIFICE. (1/2)
The two lovers rested for a while then they got up acting in sync with each other they helped each other to wash and clean up, even though the water was already lukewarm they still bath it like that hardly noticing as they were engrossed in each other for them its been long they have been so close to each other.
Hurriedly they dressed up and prepared to go meet the seer. On getting to seers place, the seer explained that he was still making preparations and that the sacrifice would be buried alive, then the king asked where is the sacrifice then, I was told it was already here waiting.
Enh! yes its ready didn't you know...
The sacrifice will be here when the time for it come, queen Idia cut in, seeing that the seer was staring at her.
He could read her countenance this means she hadn't told her husband yet that she was the human sacrifice, what a woman she won't even let her husband worry even at this last minute.
Can I ask something? queen Idia cut into his taught.
Yes queen Idia go on.
Can we make the sacrifice later this evening I have to rush somewhere and do something very fast.Can it be done?
Why yes! night time is even better for such sacrifice and it will give me more time to finish my preparations.
Thank you seer, i will leave now, my King I will meet you at home then.
Ok, the king replied, it was clear that she didn't want to be question about what she was up to, so he just nodded.
Queen Idia left, she went directly to her hut and adorned her self with her power beads, to her this mission deserved all she got so she fortified herself after putting on the beads and the ring she pick up five stones from her box they were smooth to the touch more like the pebble but they were very valued even for her she could only get five of it throughout the year so she had be preserving them for use onvery important occasion, this stones were ancient and very powerful for if crushed would transport you to the location of your choice, it was found at the bottom of the ocean odo.
The believe is that some people that have disappeared over the years after going diving or fishing must have unknowingly stepped or crushed one of this stones which must have transported them to the location they were thinking about on impact.
For one or two people had already said they suddenly found themselves in another place when they were suppose to be in another.
Queen Idia taught of where she wanted to go, which was senior queen Amanze's village, then she crushed one of the stone and like a blink she was right in the big family compound of queen Amanze striding gracefully to the door she knocked and waited for someone to come and open and welcome her in.
One of the housemaids came to the door and opened for queen Idia, after curtseying in greeting she asked her to wait while she informs them of her presence.
Queen Amanze came to the sitting area fuming,why are you back here? what you think you are enough to make me give up one of my children for a crazy sacrifice? you have to think again please leave my home.
